"They were a fairy tale team in a fairy tale setting, with a cast of larger-than-life characters and a Cinderella plot line that featured magical ping-pong balls and a talking puppet. For four years in the mid-1990s, the Orlando Magic were one of the most captivating shows in the NBA, both on the court and off. ‘This Magic Moment’ relives those heady days when Shaquille O’Neal and Penny Hardaway ruled not only pro basketball, but popular culture as well. Lacing together delightfully honest interviews with evocative footage, ‘This Magic Moment’ is not only a trip down memory lane, but also a cautionary fable about what might have been."

Can't wait to see this. Huge fan pf the whole 30 for 30 series!

She doesnt understand how could you be a magic fan nowadays? Like she says look at your soft center, your non shooting guards, your talent is sitting on the bench and things like that? :lol:

Shaq is a co-producer, I believe. And that makes me think the real story won't end up being told.

I hope I do not tear up.

So emotional to watch this and cannot believe it has been almost 20 years.
